Even Birds Do It*

Just when you think the Larry Craig thing had reached its limit – there’s this, from the Birdchick commenting on bird behavior at the feeder:

Look at the wide stance on that nuthatch...perhaps it should be renamed Craig's nuthatch?

The Birdchick provides an often irreverant look at birding, and life in general. Here's a description of her "Birds and Beer" series as described on the Minnesota Ornithological Union (MOU) listserv:

There's another Birds and Beers scheduled for October 18, 2007 at 6pm
at Merlin's Rest. Birds and Beers is a gathering of birders to have
a drink and talk some birds. People of all abilities are encouraged
to come, if you're interested in birds, you're invited. Last time we
had bird banders, new birders, novice birders, hardcore birders and
even a few non birders. It's a great way to get to know each other
outside of the listservs and stake out birds. There's a recap of the last Birds and Beers here.
